Thinking about all of you dealing with "stuff."
Lisa, my son had his 10 yr. HS reunion this weekend. He was the person who organized and planned it, so he heard a lot of gossip. He was amazed at how many people "look like sh*t." Jeez, these people are 29 and I felt like he was talking about a bunch of people my age. These things do seem to come in bunches. A few years ago, my family had 3 deaths in 1.5 years (my mom, and both of her parents). After the last one, I thought "No more of this."
Hey, you have as much right to complain as anyone else. Coughs suck, too.Quote:

Thank you for coming back the same day to turn things back on. One day without heat means the house got down to 55. Too cold as far as I'm concerned.
We likes heat. The kitties are much happier too.
Mom seems to be feeling a bit better. Still no sign of when the 3 chest tubes and drain will be removed. Whenever that happens she will be going to a pulmonary rehab facility to get both pulmonary and physical rehab after her month+ long ordeal. She fully accepts that she can't go straight home, I think she being a former nurse helps with that.
I've an appointment with a specialist on December 20th to consult on my injections, if an opening comes prior to that I will take it. I've learned I can't go without my muscle relaxers, and have also learned I can't do light weights AND spin on the same evening, it is just too much. My doctor strongly insists I keep both activities going, just moderate them. There are too many downsides to stopping the physical activity totally and I am in full agreement. I feel great when I do an appropriate workout, and fine when I ride or spin, just can't do both on the same evening. So, I will take it!
Catrin, glad to hear your mother is on the mend. Dear Donald is not yet. He will be scheduled into another surgery. It's his last hope.
((((Mimi and RD))))
Sending thoughts and prayers....
(((((((Mimi and Donald)))))))
Crossing fingers that things improve soon.
Same here. Lots of them.Quote:

Oh man, Mimi. Keeping the hugs and healing vibes flowing to you and Don - also Catrin and your mom - and malkin, your cough counts too.
Damn, Mimi. I'm sorry. Hopefully things improve...
Dear thief:
I hope you ride bikes, because the only thing in that package was a pair of bike shorts.
Oh my, both of you are in my prayers...I am sorry, that really su*ks.Quote:

Oh no. I'm so sorry Donald and you are going through all this. ((hugs))Quote:
